Abstract Synopsis

  • The text explains that airway mucus plays an essential role in trapping and removing inhaled particles, bacteria, and other contaminants from the respiratory system, helping to keep the lungs healthy.
  • It discusses how mucus production and clearance are normally balanced, but disruptions can lead to excessive mucus buildup, which can cause breathing difficulties and contribute to diseases like asthma, COPD, and cystic fibrosis.
  • The article also covers the mechanisms behind mucus dysfunction, including changes in mucus properties and ciliary beat activity, and highlights potential treatments aimed at restoring normal mucus function to improve respiratory health.]
